A combustor liner for a combustor of a gas turbine includes an outer liner and an inner liner. At least one of the outer liner and the inner liner has an upstream liner portion and a downstream liner portion with an annular gap therebetween. At least one dilution flow assembly is arranged to bridge across the annular gap. The at least one dilution flow assembly includes an upstream liner panel and a downstream liner panel with a dilution opening provided between the upstream liner panel and the downstream liner panel, and a plurality of dilution fence members arranged within the dilution opening and extending into a combustion chamber. The plurality of dilution fence members are arranged in successive arrangement in a circumferential direction and are arranged such that successive dilution fence members are alternatingly offset in an axial direction.

A combustor of an aircraft engine comprises a liner defining a primary and a dilution zone having a hot surface exposed to a flow of combustion gases traveling from the primary zone downstream to the dilution zone and a cold surface. Dilution holes extending through the liner from the cold to the hot surface delimit the primary from the dilution zone. Effusion holes extending through the liner from the cold to the hot surface direct cooling air into the dilution zone. Two or more rows of effusion holes positioned within three dilution hole diameters downstream of the dilution holes are oriented relative to the liner to direct the cooling air in a cooling direction that is at least one of normal to the direction of the flow of gases passing adjacent the effusion holes, and against the direction of the flow of gases passing adjacent the effusion holes.

A gas turbine combustion chamber, having a combustion chamber housing, a burner positioned at least partially in the combustion chamber housing and a flame tube positioned in the combustion chamber housing. An upstream end of the flame tube has a flame tube cover. In the region of the flame tube cover radially inside the flame tube cover a mixing tube of the burner extends, which defines a pre-primary combustion zone. Between the mixing tube of the burner and the flame tube cover an axial air flow passage is formed, via which air can be conducted in the axial direction outside along the mixing tube, and into the flame tube cover radial air flow passages are introduced via which the air following the axial air flow passage can be conducted in the radial direction of the flame tube cover for cooling the flame tube cover.

A gas turbine engine component having a cooling passage includes a first wall defining an inlet of the cooling passage, a second wall generally opposite the first wall and defining an outlet of the cooling passage, a metering section extending downstream from the inlet, and a diffusing section extending from the metering section to the outlet. The metering section includes an upstream side and a downstream side generally opposite the upstream side. At least one of the upstream and downstream sides includes a first passage wall and a second passage wall where the first and second passage walls intersect to form a V-shape.

This combustor is provided with an outer cylinder, an inner cylinder, a direct injection nozzle, a tail pipe, and a base end side acoustic attenuator. The outer cylinder is disposed inside a gas turbine casing. The inner cylinder is disposed on the inner circumferential side of the outer cylinder. The direct injection nozzle is disposed on the inner circumferential side of the inner cylinder. The tail pipe is connected to the inner cylinder, and fuel injected from the direct injection nozzle is burned on the inner circumferential side of the tail pipe. The base end side acoustic attenuator has an outer cylinder formation portion that is a part of a plate forming the outer cylinder, and an acoustic cover forming a base end side space in the gas turbine casing on the outer circumferential side of the outer cylinder in cooperation with the outer cylinder formation portion.

A cartridge for attachment to the inner surface of a single-walled combustion liner of an annular combustor is provided. The cartridge includes at least one chute projecting into the combustion chamber for a counter swirl effect for improved fuel/air mixing in the combustion chamber and at least two studs projecting through associated stud holes in the liner. A method for attaching a cartridge to the inner surface of a single-walled combustion liner is also provided.

A turbine engine can include a compressor section, a combustion section, and a turbine section in serial flow arrangement. A combustor in the combustion section can include a combustion chamber, a fuel supply fluidly coupled to the combustion chamber, and a fuel nozzle assembly. The fuel nozzle assembly can include an air flow passage and a fuel flow passage.
